Gable handles all types of catastrophic, permanent, and serious injuries, including injuries from vehicle accidents, nursing home abuse and neglect, wrongful deaths, and many other types of accidents that happen in South Jersey.

Our Voorhees lawyers fight for accident victims from the initial consultation until your case concludes. We’re skilled at every phase of your personal injury claim, including:

  • Investigation. We regularly send investigators to car, truck, and motorcycle accident sites, property sites, and other accident sites. We work with the police, product defect experts, traffic reconstruction professionals, building experts, nursing home industry professionals, and other liability professionals.
  • Discovery. Our Voorhees personal injury lawyers submit written questions to the defendants about the various aspects of your liability claim. We formally question, in person, every person who has knowledge of your accident.
  • Damages. We work with your physicians (and our network of physicians when necessary) to ensure we can show your diagnosis, prognosis, the full range of medical care you need, the cost of your medical care, and every way your injuries are affecting every part of your life. We work with your employers and financial experts to document your financial damages. We also work with vehicle and other property damage experts.
  • Negotiation and trial. Our Voorhees personal injury lawyers submit formal demand letters to the insurance companies and negotiate fair and just settlements - often for the insurance policy limits. Our Voorhees trial lawyers will argue your case before a jury or judge when your case doesn’t reach a settlement.

When do I need to file my personal injury claim in South Jersey?

Time is critical. While you normally have two years to file a personal injury claim in New Jersey, it’s best to contact us as soon as possible. We need to investigate the accident site quickly, speak with witnesses while their memories are fresh, and review your medical status as soon as possible. Some claims, such as claims against the New Jersey Department of Transportation, have very short notice requirements. You do need to inform your own insurance company of an accident promptly.

What is the value of my Voorhees personal injury claim?

At Ferrara & Gable, we pay attention to all the small details that often add up to large recoveries. We’re skilled at identifying future damages in addition to the bills that are already due and the pain and suffering you’ve already endured. We demand compensation for your:

  • Medical bills, including ER, hospital stays, surgeries, doctor visits, rehabilitative therapy, assistive devices/technology, and medications.
  • Lost income and benefits, including full compensation if you can’t ever work again
  • Daily physical pain and emotional suffering
  • Damage to your vehicles and personal possessions
  • Scarring and disfigurement
  • Inability to enjoy life’s pleasures
  • Loss of bodily function
  • Loss of consortium (marital or domestic partner relations)

Personal injury victims in Voorhees may also be entitled to punitive damages for inexcusable conduct like driving while intoxicated.

What are my costs for filing my personal injury claim?

Ferrara & Gable represents personal injury claims on a contingency fee basis. This means our fee is tied to the success of your claim. The more you earn, the more we earn. Our initial consultation is free.

Should I settle my accident case?

Please do not try to negotiate a settlement on your own. Our skilled personal injury lawyers demand compensation for many things unrepresented clients miss. Many clients settle much too early – before there’s a full understanding of all their damages. Once you settle, you can’t renegotiate.

We’ll itemize all your current and future damages. We’ll place a proper value on them. At Ferrara & Gable, we understand the art of negotiation.  Some of the factors that affect settlement negotiations include:

  • How much your claim is worth
  • Where the accident happened
  • The insurance coverage of each defendant - there may be more than one carrier
  • The strength of your liability claim
  • The pros and cons of settling versus going to trial
  • What injuries you have, what complications may arise, the medical care you will need, how much pain you’re in, your ability to work, and your ability to enjoy your life
  • How much a jury in Voorhees is likely to award?

When cases settle, our Voorhees personal injury lawyers prepare the necessary paperwork. When the paperwork/legal documents are signed by you and the insurance company, you should receive your share in a short time.

We’ll explain how much you receive after our legal fees and costs.
